Feasibility Retargeting for Multi-contact Teleoperation and Physical Interaction

原文アブストラクト

This short paper outlines two recent works on multi-contact teleoperation and the development of the SEIKO (Sequential Equilibrium Inverse Kinematic Optimization) framework. SEIKO adapts commands from the operator in real-time and ensures that the reference configuration sent to the underlying controller is feasible. Additionally, an admittance scheme is used to implement physical interaction, which is then combined with the operator's command and retargeted. SEIKO has been applied in simulations on various robots, including humanoid and quadruped robots designed for loco-manipulation. Furthermore, SEIKO has been tested on real hardware for bimanual heavy object carrying tasks.
